Daily Prayer for May 9th, 2018

Good morning, God—thank You! 🙂

Indeed, I am not perfect, as I stumble in many ways, but I press on to take hold of that for which, Christ Jesus, took hold of me. And when He, the perfect one, comes again from Heaven to rescue me/we who believe, from the coming wrath, our human imperfection will surely fade away. In Jesus name. Amen.

Ecclesiastes 7:20 New International Version (NIV)

20 Indeed, there is no one on earth who is righteous,
no one who does what is right and never sins.

Romans 2:1 English Standard Version (ESV)

God’s Righteous Judgment

Therefore you have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things.

James 3:2 New International Version (NIV)

We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check.

1 Corinthians 13:10 ESV

but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away.

Philippians 3:12 New International Version (NIV)

12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.
